Planning Grant for Information & Telecommunications Technology ATE Regional Center

为了满足经济多样化和扩大受过良好教育的高技能技术劳动力的需要，南内华达州社区学院计划建立ATE区域信息和电信技术中心。技术教育联盟顾问委员会组织制定一项战略计划，以内华达州已经进行的投资为基础。该计划将商业、经济发展以及中学和大专学校结合在一起，培养关系，为培养高素质劳动力提供有效的教育体系。该联盟增加了对高等教育项目的行业投入，协调了对新兴技术所需核心竞争力的分析。制定了学术支助服务计划，以增加招聘和留住在技术教育中任职人数不足的妇女和其他群体。

To address the need for economic diversification and the expansion of a well-educated, highly-skilled technology workforce, the Community College of Southern Nevada plans the establishment of an ATE Regional Center for Information and Telecommunications Technology. A Technology Education Alliance advisory board organizes the development of a strategic plan to build upon investments already made by the State of Nevada. The plan pulls together business, economic development, and secondary and postsecondary schools to foster relationships to launch an effective educational system for producing workers highly-qualified for the workforce. The Alliance increases industry input into higher education programs, coordinating an analysis of core competencies needed for emerging technologies. Plans are made for academic support services to increase the recruitment and retention of women and other groups underrepresented in technological education.
